Why it’s good
Chicken provides lean protein, while chickpeas and aubergine supply fibre that helps make the meal particularly satisfying.
Combining protein and fibre can slow gastric emptying and support normal appetite-regulating signals after eating.
It provides substantial volume without relying on refined carbohydrates.
